THE WisdomTree BLOG

Investors looking to invest in Exchange Traded Products (ETPs)—whether that is a fund or a note—may notice there are different currencies associated with the instrument. These currencies can have a significant impact on the return of the product, and therefore it’s important to understand how they work and why they fluctuate. This article seeks to offer some clarity to investors and traders around how currencies in ETPs work.

Although the environment of elevated geopolitical risk is normally associated with higher gold prices, recently very little of that anxiety has been expressed in gold. In this blog and accompanying full report, we present our new base, bull and bear case gold price forecasts.

Global financial markets have been volatile in 2018, with trade tensions between the US and China, and upon Syria and the Middle East. Emerging markets have been known to exhibit high levels of volatility during periods of uncertainty. So how have emerging markets fared so far this year?

In an environment of geopolitical risk, gold has been a safe-haven asset – the port of call for investors seeking refuge from stock market volatility. This blog looks at how US Dollar performance, inflation trends and Treasury yields may influence the outlook of gold for the upcoming months.

While foreign investors would clearly prefer a more favourable Yen/US Dollar exchange rate, they should not forget about Japan just because the Yen is on the stronger end of its trading range. Japanese equities can be interesting tactical trading ideas.

With younger populations poised to enter the workforce in the near future, India represents one of the best overall demographic opportunities when looking at the global economy today. This blog looks at the investment case for India, and the role of the country as a long-term opportunity for investment.

As the first Bank of Japan policy board meeting with the newly appointed deputy governors approaches, will the board shift towards a “de-couple” from the Fed after a decade of “synchronized” monetary policy?

Jesper Koll, our Head of Japan, is bullish on Japan and sometimes has a hard time making his case considering Japan’s many lost decades. So, what’s different this time? Why won’t Japan slide back into another lost decade? Because Koll believes four fundamental forces have changed from negative to positive.
